Green phosphors $(Zn_{1-a-b}M_aM^{\prime}_b)_xGa_yS_{x+3y/2}:Eu^{2+}$ (M, M' = alkali earth ions) with x = 2 and y = 2-5 were prepared, starting from ZnO, MgO, $SrCO_3$, $Ga_2O_3$, $Eu_2O_3$, and S with a flux $NH_4F$ using a conventional solidstate reaction. A phosphor with the composition of $(Zn_{0.6}Sr_{0.3}Mg_{0.1})_2Ga_2S_5:Eu^{2+}$ produced the strongest luminescence at a 460-nm excitation. The observed XRD patterns indicated that the optimized phosphor consisted of two components: zinc thiogallate and zinc sulfide. The characteristic green luminescence of the $ZnS:Eu^{2+}$ component on excitation at 460 nm was attributed to the donor-acceptor ($D_{ZnGa_2S_4}-A_{ZnS}$) recombination in the hybrid boundary. The optimized green phosphor converted 17.9% of the absorbed blue light into luminescence. For the fabrication of light-emitting diode (LED), the optimized phosphor was coated with MgO using magnesium nitrate to overcome their weakness against moisture. The MgO-coated green phosphor was fabricated with a blue GaN LED, and the chromaticity index of the phosphor-cast LED (pc-LED) was investigated as a function of the wt % of the optimized phosphor. White LEDs were fabricated by pasting the optimized green (G) and the red (R) phosphors, and the commercial yellow (Y) phosphor on the blue chips. The three-band pc-WLED resulted in improved color rendering index (CRI) and corrected color temperature (CCT), compared with those of the two-band pc-WLED.

The charging tendency of $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor surface was modified in order to improve discharging characteristic of green cell in an ac-plasma display panel (ac-PDP). The Zinc-silicate ($Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$) green-emitting phosphor was coated with magnesium oxide(MgO), which is viable to have positive charge on the surface. After fabricating the green cell with MgO-coated $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$, the electrical and optical properties in the cell were examined. It was found that the dynamic voltage margin could be increased while the address time was reduced. It may be ascribed to the change of charging tendency of $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor by MgO coating, which makes it possible to stable wall-charge accumulation. When $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor was coated with 1.3wt%-MgO, the address time was reduced 1.2 ${\mu}s$ and the address voltage lowered 25 V without any misfiring problem, compared to those of typical $Zn_2SiO_4:Mn^{2+}$ phosphor layer. The luminescence intensity of green cell using MgO-coated phosphor layer was also improved by 10%.

White LEDs are expected to be applied widely as a lighting system. To make white LED chips, one requires a mixture with silicon and a phosphor coating on a LED blue chip. The process of preparing a mixture with silicon using phosphor involves the use of discarded phosphor in the chip process. Reducing the costs of chip production depends on many factors, such as the mixture errors, exposure over time of silicon, and changes in the characteristics of blue chip. This paper reports the characteristics of a white LED chip manufactured through a reproduction process of derelict phosphor. This method was applicable to a real LED flashlight. A derelict phosphor chip showed similar results to a normal white chip for the degradation of cd 3.2[Cd] and 3.6[Cd], color temperature, 57[K] and 58[K], and maximum white wavelength 444.3[nm] and 449.8[nm]. These results are expected to make ea great contribution to cost reduction.

Thermographic phosphor (TP) thermometry is a noncontact optical measurement method and has been applied in many fields such as combustion and heat transfer. However, due to the limitation of bonding technology and measurement method, most TP thermometry studies were conducted only on the air environment with water-soluble binders. In this paper, a temperature measurement technology in water using TP is proposed by coatings of manganese activated magnesium fluorogermanate (Mg4FGeO6:Mn4+, MFG) with Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS). Four MFG-PDMS coatings with different thicknesses were prepared. The lifetime of MFG was not affected by the thickness of the coating as a result of the experiment and analysis of phosphor intensity using a photomultiplier tube. To measure the surface temperature field of an immerged body in water, a cylinder-type cartridge heater was coated with MFG doped PDMS. Transient surface temperature field was successfully measured even the initial temperature is higher than the boiling point of water.

Thermoluminescent phosphors, which are now being used widely in radiation dosimetry, have an excellent sensitivity to ionizing radiation. In this study, thermoluminescent phosphors of $CaSO_4$ : Mn, $CaSO_4$ : Dy and $CaSO_4$ : Tm are prepared and their physical properties are investigated by measuring the trapping parameters and their luminescent spectra. By considering the sensitivity to X-ray and fading characteristics, $CaSO_4$ : Dy is most adequate to imaging plate. The imaging plate are prepared by coating the $CaSO_4$ : Dy powder on the Al substrate and its dose dependence is linear within the range of 40 mGy-20 Gy X-ray. The sensitivity of imaging plate depends linearly on the thickness of coated phosphor layer up to $35\;mg/cm^2$ and is independent on the grain size of the phosphor in the range of $70{\sim}250\;{\mu}m$. By photographing the imaging plate, X-ray images of the test object are obtained and better than those of X-ray films.

Dense $BaMgAl_{10}O_{17}:Eu^{2+}$ phosphor particles with a spherical shape have been synthesized through spray pyrolysis method using basic aluminum nitrate precursor as a spray solution. Also, a thin layer of silica on the surface of $BaMgAl_{10}O_{17}:Eu^{2+}$ particles were coated by hydrolysis reaction of alkoxide sources with the particles. The correlation between PL intensity and surface treatment by coating for the dense $BaMgAl_{10}O_{17}:Eu^{2+}$ particles have been investigated.

A search for a new phosphor composition of excellent performance in systematic ways requires lots of research efforts, and often turns out to be very timeconsuming and difficult. Thus, usually practical ways are taken to improve the performance of phosphors. A few examples of practical surface treatments on phosphors such as $In_2O_3$ coating on $ZnGa_2O_4:Mn$, phosphoric acid treatment on ZnS:Ag,Cl, and base KOH treatment with ultrasonication on ZnS:Ag,Cl are presented. The reasons for the improvement of luminescence intensity or degradation properties after these treatments are discussed based upon careful analyses on the surface of the phosphors and a proposed model on charge carriers generated by electron beam excitation.

A transparent plasma display was developed using transparent glass barrier ribs. Glass barrier ribs were fabricated via a wet etching process. Glass barrier ribs created using a top and bottom etching process showed better transparency compared to those created through only a top etching process. A see-through phosphor layer was obtained by coating the sidewall of the barrier ribs with a conventional opaque phosphor. A fabricated prototype of a transparent plasma display was clear enough to see the background beyond the panel and was well operated by a conventional driving scheme. The maximum luminance was 1150 cd/$m^2$ and the maximum luminous efficacy was 1.35 lm/W in a Ne+13.5%Xe gas-mixture and green cells.
